Results: Mean of age, gender, marital status, place for living, level of income of UD, BAD-D and control groups were similar. Statistically significant differences were observed in between UD, BAD-D and control groups, in terms of HRDS, TAS-20 and SF-36 scores. Mean group scores of UD and BAD-D group were higher than controls, in terms of all scales. However, mean points of UD and BAD-D groups were similar in terms of four scales. Patients with UD and BAD-D had positive relationship with TAS-20, BRDS and BDI; negative relationship between SF-36, significantly. In conclusion, it is found that alexithymia scores of UD and BAD-D groups were higher; quality of life scores were lower than controls. It is also observed that patients with higher alexithymia scores have more severe depressive symptoms and having a less sense of quality of life. Although our findings indicate that presense of alexithymia is important in depressive disorders, however no difference were found between alexithymia scores in patients with UD and BAD-D. Discussion: Alexithymia scores of all groups had positively related with depression, negatively related with quality of life. Our findings showed that, alexithymia is an important factor to the diagnosis of depressive disorders, however alexithymia is not a marker to make differential diagnosis of BAD-D and UD.Öğe Analysis of Relationships among the Subjective Well-Being, Life Satisfaction and Job Anxiety for the Undergraduate Psychology Students(Mattioli 1885, 2020) Karayagiz, SabanObjective This study was designed to explore job anxiety, life satisfaction, and subjective levels of well-being for the undergraduate students enrolled in the department of psychology at a university.

Methods: Twenty-nine patients were selected among patients who presented with complaints of vaginismus-related infertility. The diagnosis and severity of vaginismus were assessed according to the Lamont-Pacik system. Five women with milder forms of vaginismus were treated with other options. Of the remaining 24 patients with severe vaginismus, 20 had Lamont grade 3 and four with Lamont grade 4. Likewise, 24 patients who were diagnosed with unexplained infertility were selected as the control group. Results: Of the 24 patients, 15 had first attempt, 8 had second and 1 had fourth attempt. Folliculometry was performed with abdominal ultrasonography in 21 women with normal body mass index. Folliculometry and endometrial evaluation were performed in three overweight cases with transvaginal ultrasonography under sedation. Single ET was performed in 27 cycles, and two ETs were performed in the others. Beta human chorionic gonadotropin positivity was detected in 20 of the 39 cycles. Similarly, in 20 patients, while clinical pregnancy was detected (20 of 39 cycles, 51.2%), the number of cycles with term and live births were 16 (16 of 39 cycles, 41.0%). While clinical pregnancy was detected in 25 of 35 cycles in the control group (71.4%), live birth was achieved in 22 cycles (62.8%). Compared with the vaginismus group, clinical pregnancy rate (20 vs 25, p<0.09) and live birth rate (LBR) (16 vs 22, p<0.06) were comparable. Conclusion: Both clinical pregnancy and LBRs of women with infertility due to severe vaginismus undergoing IVF-ET are similar to women with unexplained infertility.
